For Canada Day we went on an adventure to `Taylor Head Provincial Park <https://www.novascotia.com/see-do/outdoor-activities/taylor-head-provincial-park/1863>`__. I had a plan to do the full loop, but when we go there moderate from AllTrails was a bit harder/muddier than I expected. And for 4km for my hiking partner, through a lot of muddy patches was great.

The 4km loop from the map was a bit more than that `according to my Garmin <https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/9122342856>`__ but we did have a couple of false starts finding the start of the trail and then finding where we cut across.

The weather was amazing on the hike, warm, but not too warm, and lots of different terrain.

I can't wait to go back, probably later in August, or September. If I take the little guy we will get there a bit earlier with a full lunch if we are going to do the entire loop.
